Hi everyone,
I posted this on another board as well...because I need all of the help I can get for my son. We live in the Philly area and I was hoping someone could help us out.
I desperately need a recommendation for either a Naturopathic, Osteopathic or Holistic doctor for my son. I am willing to travel within an hour of Philly (to the suburbs, or to NJ or DE) for a great doctor who is willing to think outside of the box...and more importantly, one who can help my son.
My son has had GI and neurological issues since he was an infant (he is now 3.5 years old) and we have seen many, many doctors at both CHOP and AI DuPont and all but one have proven themselves to be useless time and time again. My son's case is apparently complex so each doctor likes to pass him off to someone else - which is beyond frustrating and upsetting.
At this point, I think we need to go another route. If any of you could recommend a wonderful doctor, who thinks outside of the box, I would be extremely grateful.
Thank you so much!

For regular care Dr Fried in Kimberton.

You may also want to look into a dr that specializes in Functional Medicine (a complementary approach, like holistic med).
